I've been germination testing some very old bean seed and absolutely HATE to throw away the successful ones, it make me feel like an assassin So, since it will be another month before I get home, I thought to offer them on a couple of free sites in the area..and lo and behold, got a list of people wanting them. One, who is coming tonight to pick them up, is using them as "horticultural therapy" which is a new term to me so will be interested in exactly what that means. There will be more coming so will be able to offer some to everyone, although most want the bush and are reticent about the pole beans, understandably as it's still freezing at night from time to time. But any that sprout now have a home, including anything else such as tomatoes. Yay!

Yo! I have some stuff going. A garden. A weak and pathetically producing rabbitry that has cost me more than I care to admit. I need chickens. I don't want chickens, but I need them.
How do I get the chickens from the coop/run every day into the chicken tractor? Probably not going to get more than 5 laying hens.

Thanks. I believe that settles it for me. I'm avoiding the tractor thingy because in Oklahoma everything must be as stout as a frikken building. Recently learned about free access to that thingy that bends metal pipes. Thinking metal hoop would work best, less weather deterioration. I like to torch to sterilize.

I tractor chicks and hen once a broody hen hatches them . I have to keep them in a protected grassy area with fairly even ground near my house and rotate that and some rabbit tractors around on my lawn moving them twice a day . I live in a mountain valley where the forest surrounds my property and we have a high predator load of bears, raccoons, coyote, hawks, eagles , owl etc. I keep the animals in the tractor and do not move them daily back and forth unless weather is forecast to be very inhospitable from mid spring through to mid fall . In the tractor they still require daily feeding and fresh water.
